Circlo also utilizes a data-driven sorting system that classifies garments by material and color, facilitating low-energy automated fiber extraction. This approach not only enhances the efficiency of recycling processes but also ensures that the resulting materials meet the quality standards demanded by the fashion and textile industries.Revenue generation at Circlo occurs through B2B transactions, primarily via partnerships with established fashion and clothing brands focused on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. The company collaborates with these partners to manage and recycle their textile waste, facilitating a more sustainable production cycle. These transactions typically involve agreements for the supply of recycled materials, where clients place orders for specific quantities of high-purity recycled fibers tailored to their manufacturing needs. The pricing structure is determined based on the quality and type of recycled materials provided, ensuring compatibility with clients’ production requirements.
